Thanks Pam - would be ideal, if the bloody LR steering guard didn't use the holes already Sad
I'm thinking about making some more holes but I'm not sure how much distance from the front of the chassis I need to leave be safe?

By the way, thanks for the offer Brendan - I may need some gear in Feb Thumbs Up Tell someone you love them today because life is short.
But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing...

You can have jate rings and a steering guard fitted to the same holes - it does require the steering guard to have clearance for the jate rings though ......

I have jate rings and I'm still looking for a steering guard I like. John

JATE rings are ok, but they do have a tendancy to get buried in the mud. Then you have to crawl around on the floor to reach them. Darren
